20:02:55 #startmeeting tc 20:02:56 Meeting started Tue Apr 28 20:02:55 2015 UTC and is due to finish in 60 minutes. The chair is ttx. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. 20:02:57 Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic #startvote. 20:03:00 The meeting name has been set to 'tc' 20:03:02 Our agenda for today: 20:03:06 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/TechnicalCommittee 20:03:13 #topic Adding the Chef cookbooks to OpenStack 20:03:18 #link https://review.openstack.org/175000 20:03:24 So this was set by the proposer to WIP after we set the agenda 20:03:33 I think is a good idea to defer the application a bit, since that gives them time to experience behaving like an OpenStack project a bit more 20:03:34 o/ 20:03:42 kk 20:03:42 (adopting -dev ML for discussion, dropping hangouts for IRC meetings etc...) 20:03:47 \o 20:03:51 So I guess there is little point in discussing it now, unless you have remarks you'd like to raise 20:03:54 ttx: yeah we understand that 20:04:02 I support the theory 20:04:09 no hurry anyway 20:04:14 me too mordred 20:04:26 and will happily be positive about it when it's decided that it's time for me to be happy and positive 20:04:38 positive ftw 20:04:39 I support a project actually following the common experience/approach for a while before jumping all-in and being under the TC 20:04:41 mordred: wouldja please? :) 20:04:46 mordred: kidding 20:05:02 * mordred is happy and positive at annegentle 20:05:05 OK, let's move on 20:05:10 #topic Clarify that meetings use official IRC channels 20:05:15 #link https://review.openstack.org/175427 20:05:22 I think this is a good idea. 20:05:29 Comments / Thoughts ? 20:05:49 I agree with this 20:05:56 I just added as a comment the rationale for having meetings in meeting channels, since it comes back as a FAQ 20:06:00 I do not disagree 20:06:05 Does this mean instead of phone conferences? 20:06:11 fungi: when do we run out of times/rooms? 20:06:25 fungi: seems like a resource limit eventually 20:06:30 annegentle: we can have an almost-infinite number of rooms 20:06:34 we can always add more channels? 20:06:36 egon: or at least in addition to 20:06:37 egon: instead of meeting in specific channels and/or on random technologies 20:06:50 mordred: fungi: okay, it's difficult already with 24 slots 20:06:59 24 x 4 20:07:03 yeah, we have 4 channels now. we could add a 5th 20:07:05 (I made up 24 by multiplying 3 by 8) 20:07:08 ok 20:07:16 annegentle: the trick is to grow the number as needed, not just as a way to have everyone meet at 19:00 UTC on Tuesdays 20:07:25 ttx: sure, yup 20:07:29 so "encourage" spreading the meetings out 20:07:38 but obviosuly that's a trade-off 20:07:45 keeping the number of channels small helps limit the overlap between related meetings, but only up to a point 20:07:49 for docs specialty teams we allow/enable hangout, is that going to be stopped with this policy? 20:07:54 (I should ask in the review as well) 20:08:01 OK, we have 9 yes, happy to approve in 30 seconds 20:08:04 or is this for "main team"? 20:08:08 wait please :) 20:08:08 rush to record your approval 20:08:15 * ttx freezes 20:08:23 annegentle: honestly, I think the main checkpoint for me is "can someone participate fully in your project without joining those" 20:08:36 mordred: okay, that's a good litmus test 20:08:39 annegentle: so if you also have some hangouts to accomplish some things and that's useful 20:08:41 neat 20:08:54 whats the latest on webrtc? 20:09:03 but if you have to be a part of those to be part of the club - it's exclusionary 20:09:04 right, at least the "main" meeting should be logged on a meeting channel 20:09:08 yah 20:09:22 also - keeping in mind that anything in a hangout does not end up being logged 20:09:31 I mean, other than in google's data center :) 20:09:32 okay then I'm good (but still would like to know if we have a plan for RTC?) 20:09:38 because, honestly, the same thing can be said about, for example, mid-cycle in-person meetings 20:09:40 mordred: heh, my feelings also 20:09:42 mordred: important distinction :) 20:09:58 as long as they're not critical to participation in the project, they seem fine 20:09:59 annegentle: nothing being worked on that i know of 20:10:05 annegentle: it's not just open source vs. proprietary. It's also that it's easier to attend an IRC meeting than a video call. I attend a lot of IRC meetings while doing something else 20:10:07 russellb: it might just not be ready 20:10:16 ttx: ++ 20:10:34 there's stuff out there, just nobody trying to figure it out / make something that runs on our infra 20:10:34 ttx: to me it's also about higher fidelity and attention (IRC obviously lets you multitask more easily) 20:10:44 but the point is that the means to participate are discoverable and open, not exclusionary and hidden 20:10:59 but even if that was done, it's still less accessible / more exclusionary than IRC meetings that are logged and searchable 20:11:10 It's definitely valuable to have historic logs to go back to, especially for people trying to come up to speed. 20:11:12 devananda: right but even the current phrasing doesn't really speak to the anti-pattern 20:11:19 very hard to keyword search a video conference recording 20:11:21 egon: totally agree 20:11:23 Also some people are not comfortable with their appearance or their spoken skills, or have deep French accent 20:11:25 egon: ++ 20:11:29 egon: ++ 20:11:37 ttx: the french accents are the worst 20:11:45 text abstracts that out quite nicely 20:11:48 ttx: also, some people type english very slowly too. scheduled meetings == prep time for them 20:11:48 fungi: well, keyword searching our irc logs isn't super easy yet either, but we should fix that given that we have an elastic search cluster :) 20:12:00 yep, much more tractable 20:12:05 ayup. Okay, I can like the current wording, just want to be sure I understand the policy then. 20:12:13 annegentle: may I approve now ? 20:12:26 sdague: google search works pretty well fwiw 20:12:31 ttx: one moment 20:12:40 clarkb: that hasn't been my experience, but such it is :) 20:13:24 ok! thanks 20:13:32 ttx: appreciate the pause button 20:14:00 approved 20:14:12 #topic Update Congress service name and description 20:14:15 #link https://review.openstack.org/169480 20:14:21 I think this description is incrementally better, so I +1ed it 20:14:38 and it has 7 yes, so I guess most are OK with it 20:14:50 inching towards understanding 20:14:55 I'll therefore approve in a minute, unless someone stops me 20:15:04 do we know if any congress folks are at least not upset with it? 20:15:13 Tim Hinrichs Patch Set 2: LGTM 20:15:14 they did tweet about "policy as a service" a bit 20:15:25 kinda sounds like a patent troll's application for a patent of something to me. 20:16:00 but, whatevs. 20:16:02 incrementally better,, but I'm still unclear on what it means 20:16:08 jaypipes: I didn't say it's perfect, I said it's slightly better, and can't propose better 20:16:16 ttx: I know :) 20:17:13 I wouldn't even be discussing this if it didn't trigger the "policy terminology overload" alert 20:17:13 I declare it at least typeable 20:17:42 9 yes, approving in 30 sec 20:17:49 :/ 20:17:58 devananda: I always assumed it's called "Congress" because there's ~535 different ideas of what it should do ;) 20:18:16 zaneb: hahahaha 20:18:24 zaneb: LOL! yes 20:18:32 zaneb: hahaha 20:19:02 ok approved 20:19:19 #topic Projects list housekeeping 20:19:25 All those additions are approved by their respective PTLs, so I'll approve them tomorrow morning unless we get a -1: 20:19:30 * Add manila's ui plugin to horizon (https://review.openstack.org/175620) 20:19:34 * Add django-openstack-auth-kerberos project (https://review.openstack.org/172802) 20:19:37 * Add keystoneauth to keystone project in governance repo (https://review.openstack.org/175610) 20:19:40 * Moves security-doc repo from Docs to Security (https://review.openstack.org/177070) 20:19:45 * Add openstack-infra/openstackid-resources to Infra (https://review.openstack.org/176338) 20:20:08 If you disagree with any, post a -1 and we'll discuss it next meeting 20:20:11 otherwise will aprove 20:20:17 all look great 20:20:18 #topic Governance repo housekeeping 20:20:26 * Membership updated based on PTL elections (https://review.openstack.org/175007) 20:20:30 I think it's safe to approve this now 20:20:54 election offcials said it was corresponding to their results alright 20:21:04 SO unless someone screams I'll +2/APPRV it too 20:21:49 ok, let's do this 20:21:56 I promise to continue lurking :) 20:22:05 #topic Cross-project track at the Design Summit 20:22:08 OK, more interesting 20:22:12 #link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vCTZBJKCMZ2xBhglnuK3ciKo3E8UMFo5S5lmIAYMCSE/edit?usp=sharing 20:22:25 So we have 22 proposals up at this point, for 14 slots. 20:22:32 Please feel free to add comments on those 20:22:51 We should have a subgroup of TC members volunteers to work on the final selection & agenda. 20:22:53 are there any things that TC members feel are burning issues that haven't gotten submitted yet? 20:23:13 Maybe we can have volunteers from the "elected for another 6 months" members already 20:23:18 mikal: do you know if john is planning to have a nova slot to discuss clustered hypervisor support in nova? 20:23:22 I think Doug and Anne volunteered a couple weeks ago ? 20:23:23 * sdague volunteers 20:23:28 and newly-elected members can propose themselves next week 20:23:32 devananda: not sure, I'd have to check the etherpad 20:23:33 ttx: yes, count me in 20:23:33 Please hold 20:23:35 ttx: I'm happy to help with that. in principle I hav emore time now :) 20:23:39 Since this is actually something for the newly elected members too 20:23:45 devananda: I don't think so 20:23:48 yep I can help 20:23:51 mikal: k. I checked last night, looked like "no" - so then I would suggest that to the cross project track 20:23:58 devananda: can I have some of that? 20:24:01 devananda: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/liberty-nova-summit-ideas 20:24:06 devananda: probably worth talking to john directly 20:24:09 I don't see anything from the scheduler for cross-project 20:24:16 jaypipes: there's plenty to go around :) 20:24:28 We taked about that at our meeting this morning 20:24:30 devananda: yeah, I don't see anything there 20:24:49 You can have sort of a discussion by adding comments or replying to them 20:25:08 edleafe: it's not clear to me that we're really ready for that right? 20:25:13 Ideally we would have lots of coments and then a subteam can gather to make up the agenda 20:25:15 sdague: k, so i'll write that up and propose it after the next meeting. jaypipes, interested in coleading it? 20:25:20 ideally cross project sessions should involved > 2 projects 20:25:26 I'm fine not being part of the selection subgroup this time around 20:25:36 sdague: We need to understand what other projects would need from scheduling 20:25:38 if enough people volunteer 20:25:43 we're so nova-centric now 20:25:49 sdague: nova+neutron is up there... 20:25:58 devananda: it's not approved yet, just proposed 20:25:59 devananda: I was referring to getting some of that time you had more of ;) 20:26:06 edleafe: ironic would really like support from a shared scheduler, too 20:26:09 jaypipes: oh, lol 20:26:09 devananda: as we discussed previously, that's kind of a special case 20:26:21 given that it's #1 ops burning issue 20:26:31 out of philly 20:26:35 So I heard: annegentle, dhellmann, sdague. devananda won't be a TC member at the end of the week, but can still comment and make noise with his mouth 20:26:35 *nod* 20:26:42 * dhellmann still thinks the nova and neutron teams could share a slot in their schedule 20:27:18 i thought it was already on their schedule 20:27:18 dhellmann: I agree with that 20:27:20 mestery: around? 20:27:26 russellb: o/ 20:27:29 ttx: I'm in til Oct 2015? 20:27:34 russell_h: yes, john placed that already 20:27:42 err, russellb ^ 20:27:52 mestery: was checking on joint nova+neutron session 20:28:05 zz_johnthetubagu and I alreayd agreed on the nova+neutron slot being the last nova slot thursday afternoon 20:28:09 It's the only one without overlap 20:28:11 annegentle: no I meant, as volunteer for the selection subgroup 20:28:15 mestery: great! 20:28:17 And we'll use it for nova-net migration, overlap, etc. 20:28:26 https://libertydesignsummit.sched.org/event/495f67e8acd369d1ac459b6ca9882340 20:28:26 ttx: ah got it 20:28:39 heh, I should bail on this channel seeing as I never participate and absorb a lot of russellb's highlights 20:28:40 "Nova: Future of nova-network" session 20:28:46 so I still think that we need to consider the fact that is currently listed as the #1 burning issue by the user committee from the ops meetup. So if it needs more breathing space... 20:28:47 at a time when Neutron can participate 20:28:55 appears in Nova nd Neutron tracks 20:28:57 "Lets discuss feedback from resent Ops supports" 20:29:04 s/supports/summit/ i suspect :) 20:29:11 also s/resent/recent/ 20:29:15 russell_h: blame tab ordering 20:29:24 is the last thursday really a good time to discuss? 20:29:37 markmcclain: there's a first thursday? 20:29:42 lol 20:29:43 sdague: it's not a matter of it being unimportant, it's a matter of possibly having other things that affect more than 2 projects 20:29:51 yeah - that seems like an early-in-the-week kinda topic 20:29:52 markmcclain: it's when neutron has an empty slot 20:29:57 because other things might want to fall out from it 20:29:59 I'm fine with utilizing additional time if needed 20:30:22 mordred: exactly 20:30:33 sdague: given the feedback from ops, why not put it in the ops track? 20:30:40 that also puts it in a slot on tuesday 20:30:44 mordred markmcclain: Those things can be discussed (and will be) post summit 20:30:50 *discussed 20:31:32 I see that neutron and nova both have a time slot on Wednesday 9:00 AM. Can that be used? 20:31:35 devananda: the ops track is a different kind of vibe 20:31:45 mestery: concerned that we might lose people who leave early due to holiday 20:31:55 dhellmann: Wednesday is better 20:32:02 markmcclain: It's a valid concern. 20:32:30 If we have hte nova+neutron track in a fishbowl, we can mostly forget about it being useful. Would rather use a working group room. 20:32:36 mestery: fair 20:32:47 honestly, I'm still personally happy to give it a cross project track to get the conversation rolling, filtering, then hopefully more concrete things can happen in the nova/neutron dedicated slot 20:32:59 sdague: I'd be good with that too! 20:33:27 because if we as a community did nothing other but figure this one out in Vancouver, it would be considered a success by a ton of people. 20:33:28 mestery: maybe we can get you a work room earlier than thursday by swapping with someone else 20:33:31 dhellmann: we specifically put our scheduler stuff early on wednesday, tightly grouped 20:33:36 So, on this topic: please comment on the spreadsheet if you care one way or another about those topics. Once election is over we'll ask for more volunteers for the selection committee so that they prepare an agenda, ideally for TC to vet next Tuesday 20:34:16 which means the selection group should meet on Monday or something 20:34:17 I think we need a cross-project track for this with the followup on Thursday 20:34:30 It seems like the most sensible setup 20:34:36 mestery: a cross-project session is going to be fishbowl 20:34:55 dhellmann: I'm willing to live with those limiitations in this case 20:35:08 fishbowl's can be constructive 20:35:12 mestery: can you find a slot on tuesday that doesn't compete with other nova or neutron sessions? 20:35:23 ok. I still think these 2 teams should just go work on the problem without taking up a cross-project slot, but we'll see what other priorities we end up with 20:35:26 we just need one of those really detailed… ttx like discussion etherpads 20:36:02 dougwig: We have no sessions Tuesday :) 20:36:30 dhellmann: how about curating that list down to proposals on Monday / Tuesday, in time for presenting the net result to the TC next Tuesday ? 20:36:44 dhellmann: gives time for newly-elected to volunteer too :) 20:36:53 ok, I think I can manage that 20:37:10 dhellmann: what's the problem with the slot we already allocated? 20:37:29 dansmith: someone pointed out that the existing slot was sort of late in the week 20:37:41 that said, there is all Friday for folow-up 20:37:44 dansmith: and to get an earlier slot, we would have to give up a cross-project slot 20:37:48 it's only a little more than halfway through project dev days 20:38:12 thursday can be moved around a lot I think, so is first thing thursday morning good enough? 20:38:19 dansmith: yeah, that's fine, if it works I'm OK with it, I was just trying to find an alternative for an earlier slot that didn't involve giving up a cross-project session for this topic again 20:38:48 yeah, the "again" is part of the hesitation to disrupt everything else, I think 20:38:50 dansmith: the nova and neutron teams can work that out, my goal was to keep it in a regular session so if thursday works for you all then I'm happy 20:38:57 dhellmann: when was the last cross project for this? The one in Paris was in the nova track 20:38:59 okay 20:39:07 markmcclain: ok, I thought it was xp 20:39:24 i don't think it was ever cross-project 20:39:30 ok, my bad memory 20:40:16 anyway, I'd say first thing thursday, or a cross-project session would be more ideal, IMHO 20:40:17 the other issue is that we haven't been able to to seem to get the right ppl in the room because every plan we push forward gets shot down 4-6wks post summit 20:40:28 I think also the goal with thursday was to get some operator feedback on use cases and such 20:40:37 and thursday gets us the most operators I think 20:40:51 dansmith: +1 20:41:02 markmcclain: yeah, and being in cross-project time means some right people might have other things to do :/ 20:42:19 OK, I think this is now chaotic enough for us to move to... 20:42:22 #topic Open discussion 20:42:36 I wanted to raise the "Officialize Liberty release schedule" thread (http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-April/061331.html) 20:42:42 No comment on that thread for a few weeks now, so I'll make it official tomorrow unless someone complains now 20:42:51 ttx: +1 seems reasonable 20:42:59 In other news, we have elections under way, if you haven't voted, do it now 20:43:15 no idea how much % voters we have so far 20:43:35 tristanC: is that something you would communicate on ? 20:43:43 ttx: schedule looks fine 20:43:50 Remember that the "Liberty" TC members are invited to a joint TC/Board meeting the Sunday afternoon before Summit starts in Vancouver 20:44:08 And that we plan a TC-and-previous-TC dinner on the Thursday evening 20:44:25 ttx: I assume the board meeting will be public again? 20:44:44 ttx: ^ was about to ask that, too, as I plan to attend anyway 20:44:45 yep, should be, except any portion where we go into executive session 20:45:12 zaneb: it will afaik 20:45:24 russellb: "we" being the board, not the tc 20:45:30 correct. 20:45:32 pleia2: do you happen to know what percent of the tc electorate have voted so far? 20:46:32 fungi: no, would have to ask tristanC 20:46:46 my understanding is it may not be possible to find out 20:46:48 thanks, just figured i'd check 20:46:56 jogo: it is possible 20:47:04 jogo: CIVS gives you that data 20:47:14 ttx: oh even better\ 20:47:25 can we see who is winning? 20:47:28 but only the election admin can access that :) 20:47:32 dansmith: lol 20:47:41 lol 20:47:44 annegentle: I expect a wallop from ttx any second :) 20:48:03 dansmith: We are all winning :) 20:48:11 So in summary... this was the last meeting for the Kilo TC membership. Next week will be the first meeting of the Liberty membership 20:48:12 aww 20:49:11 Thanks to all the TC members. Some like to think we could get a lot more done, but we actually completely overhauled our governance over the last 6 months 20:49:25 ttx: \o/ 20:49:33 ttx: ++ 20:49:37 ++ 20:49:37 which has not been a small undertaking 20:49:39 ttx: \o/ 20:49:54 But yeah, I agree we can do better! (if elected) 20:50:13 Anything else, anyone ? 20:50:14 way to go really! 20:50:21 * maishsk takes off his hat and applauds you all 20:50:46 Oh, Kilo release news while we have 5 extra minutes 20:50:47 ++ 20:51:05 Neutron RC3 is out, Expecting a Nova RC3 soon 20:51:12 Chances are we'll get a Swift RC3 too 20:51:19 the rest is clear 20:51:47 Last words before we close ? 20:52:39 to the committee members who decided not to run and so won't be coming back, thank you for your service! 20:52:46 ++ 20:52:48 ++ 20:52:49 ++ 20:52:50 ++ 20:52:52 ++ 20:52:53 with just over a day left, get out the vote! 20:53:04 ++ 20:53:27 +++ 20:53:33 ++ 20:53:46 alright!
